GTX 1050TI Compatibilty

[cdragos38]

Hello!
I want to buy an ASUS Geforce GTX 1050 Ti 4GB Phoenix (https://www.amazon.com/Geforce-Phoenix-Graphics-PH-GTX1050TI-4G-Graphic/dp/B01M360WG6)
The thing is i don't know if it will be compatibile with my setup: Mobo:
Asrock H81m-vg4 r.3.0
I5 4460
500w psu
Will the new gpu work? Because i already had one and it didn't work( Asus Strix GTX 1050TI 4gb)

Yes, it should work and so should the Asus Strix. If it does not work then there is something else going on because your board is compatible with a 1050ti. Even running PCIe 2.0 with 16 lanes should not be a problem for the 1050ti.

I have returned the strix and bought the pheonix because it's smaller and has only 1 fan . Hope it will solve my problem

The PCIE slot on your current motherboard should support that GPU without issues but when you had that Strix did you connect the PSU to it? That card requires a 6-pin connection.

I got the gpu and it works fine.
